 | Hi,
I am searching for the macro command in vi for doing this task which I
have to do otherwise manually.
For example, these are some lines of a file I need to work on
../client/source/tryst.cpp@@/main/KERNEL/TEST/0
../client/source/tryst.cpp@@/main/KERNEL/TEST/1
../client/source/tryst.cpp@@/main/KERNEL/TEST/2
../client/source/tryst.cpp@@/main/KERNEL/TEST/3
Now what I want to do is create a macro in "map" command so that with
one key stroke I get this output.
../client/source/tryst.cpp
../client/source/tryst.cpp
../client/source/tryst.cpp
../client/source/tryst.cpp
thanks in advance.
Lex

:%substitute/@@.*$//g does what you want.
:map :%substitute/@@.*$//g
maps this substitution to .

's' suffices as the command name
and there will be at most one
match per line as it is anchored
with the end-of-line (EOL), so
the 'g' flag can be dropped:
:map :%s/@@.*$//
vi: there is no angle notation" in vi
(only elvis and vim), so you'll have to use
"#2" for the F2 key - and insert the CTRL-M
at the end litereal by typing CTRL-V CTRL-M:
:map #2 :%s/@@.*$//^M
caveat: make sure that the "@@"
really is unique in each line.

| sounds like sed would be more appropriate, not that you've made it all
that clear precisely what you want to achieve.
